On 14 April, shots were fired at the taxi in which five members of the Afro-descendant Garifuna community of San Juan Tela were travelling. This is the third serious attack on young members of the Garifuna community of San Juan Tela, in Atlantida department, northern Honduras, in the last 14 months. Amnesty International fears that other residents may be at risk.
